Joe Rogan's latest interview is with a hardcore anti-vax doctor, Suzanne Humphries. Through the whole pandemic I never heard this perspective. It is so taboo that it has been effectively suppressed unless you go looking for it. Her persona is seriously non grata on Youtube et al. Rogan is a crack in the dike. There are a lot of astonishing claims that she claims to backup in her book. But Joe's interview is sympathetic and credulous, and he's shown that he can move the needle on such topics. It will move a lot of vaccination needles away from arms.
If Humphries is right, medical scientists, practitioners and the rest of us have earned far more epistemic humility than we have accepted. That's a tough pill to swallow.
What do you mean you never heard these perspectives? These people never shut up. There is an entire interview circuit, and perpetual book tours. They run the most popular media outlets in the USA. They control the entire federal government.
How on earth can you continue to claim that these views are suppressed?
How many people with polio do you know? What’s her explanation of why polio almost disappeared after everyone was vaccinated? Couching a bunch of BS in “if she’s right” makes you sound like a shill.

He also has a track record of retracted publications.
